Please consider helping the Dickerson Family in their time of loss and sadness of Mrs. Nicole Nicholas Dickerson. Nicole was an amazing Wife, Mom, Welch Elementary teacher, and friend.
If you can’t help financially please pray for her family.

@AsugarC @mark_rising @ipsd204 for when a child struggles. A lot of good can come from “the village” all engaging in this work and learning.

@AsugarC @mark_rising @ipsd204 Mental health professionals led these sessions for parents. You should come next year. Also, I know I’d want my son’s teachers, who see him many hours of the waking day, to be skilled in best practices to support their mental health as well as be aware of warning signs

Excited to be in attendance at @ipsd204 ‘s 1st Mental Health Symposium! Here with the lens of both a teacher and a parent in the district—one session for profession needs, one session for personal!
Proud to work and live in a district that prioritizes this important work.

@Lyricalswordz @MelAlterSmith Yes!! Thank you! It was killing me that I could picture it but not find it 😭 thank you! 🥰

[Mara Porada @Mrs_Porada]

@MelAlterSmith you once shared a Sonnet (Hyperdoc?) lesson that I feel may have been created by @Lyricalswordz ..
Besides Shakespearean, I remember loving the variety of modern sonnets in it—had its own section or two even.
Can you help me find what I’m looking for? 😭

[Mara Porada @Mrs_Porada]

How fun!

We've shredded a book that was "loved to pieces" and mixed it up in a jar... can you figure out what book it is? Submit your guesses and win prizes! Brooklyn and Shanya submitted their guesses today!

@jimknight99 @holliepoetry ‘s “Nobody Told Me”, to 5-6 expecting moms (and fellow English teachers) at baby showers 🙂

@Ms_Gianni @GombertGators So sweet. Mikey told me all about his “feeling teacher” yesterday and what “empathy” is and I’m living for this SEL for kinders 😭😍

[Mara Porada @Mrs_Porada]

@pe_debi @ShelleyMayH @noragee73 @GombertPta @GombertGators My kindergarten son told me all about it! He especially liked the “jump boxes” 😊
